The present disclosure provides a display panel. The display panel may include a first substrate on which a main display area is disposed, at least one second substrate on which an auxiliary display area smaller than the main display area is disposed, and an organic film connecting the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein at least one second substrate includes a plurality of block substrates separated from each other, wherein the plurality of block substrates are connected by the organic film, and wherein each of the plurality of block substrates comprises pixels of the auxiliary display area.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
3. The display panel of claim 2, wherein the plurality of third block substrates are separated in a radial form.
4. The display panel of claim 3, wherein the organic film connects the plurality of first block substrates, the plurality of second block substrates, and the plurality of third block substrates.
5. The display panel of claim 3, wherein when the first substrate and the plurality of third block substrates are on same plane, sizes of the plurality of third block substrates increase as a distance from the first substrate increases.
6. The display panel of claim 5, wherein a number of pixels disposed on the plurality of third block substrates increases as a distance from the first substrate increases.
7. The display panel of claim 3, wherein when the first substrate and the plurality of third block substrates are on same plane, a gap between third block substrates adjacent to each other increases as a distance from the first substrate increases.
10. The display panel of claim 9, wherein the second driving substrates are separated in a radial form.
11. The display panel of claim 1, further comprising first pixels disposed on the first substrate and second pixels disposed on the at least one second substrate, and wherein a pixel density of the first pixels is higher than a pixel density of the second pixels.
12. The display panel of claim 11, wherein a pixels-per-inch (PPI) of the first substrate is higher than a PPI of the at least one second substrate.
14. The display panel of claim 13, wherein an edge sidewall of the first substrate includes wedge-shaped tapered surfaces, and becomes thinner as the first substrate goes toward an end of the edge sidewall.
15. The display panel of claim 14, wherein the tapered surfaces are symmetrical with respect to a thickness center of the first substrate.
16. The display panel of claim 14, wherein a length of the tapered surfaces is inversely proportional to a thickness of the first substrate.
17. The display panel of claim 13, wherein the plurality of block substrates are spaced apart in a shape of rings having a same center.
18. The display panel of claim 17, wherein the plurality of block substrates are separated in a radial form.
20. The display panel of claim 13, wherein a pixels-per-inch (PPI) of the first substrate is higher than a PPI of the second substrates.
